Got Dubs!!!!!!!

I just put on my 225/35/20 Konig Prophets 20 x 7.5. I have a comptech drop and there is minor rubbing with 4 people in the car only on the drivers side rear wheel. No turning problems no rubbing up front at all. It looks sweet!!!! I'm getting my fenders rolled in the rear so they won't rub at all!! I wish I could post pics but I'm computer illiterate, and don't have my own web page.

I Sent them to Rondog I hope you can post them!!! So all of you non believers can eat your own words!!

The only reason 20's "wont fit" on a CL is because, untill now, they only came in a 8.5" width and If you can find then in a 7.5" width they will fit. thats what I found!!! Do your research and you might learn a bit!!!!

That is one of the reasons, the biggest reason is the offset.

just put on my 225/35/20 Konig Prophets 20 x 7.5.
Those 4 rims barely qualify for 1 real rim. 20X7.5 is forcing the issue. Oh well, to each his own.

I actually think they look good

Should have painted your calipers black while you had the wheels off though. That'd make 'em look alot better.

Sorry my car isn't cleaned up but noone would believe me so I had to go take pictures to prove a point, Some of you may hate, but I think it looks tight, I have been driving around tonight, and got my fenders rolled, and the drivers side rear wheel will slightly rub if I turn right very hard and fast,and everything else is perfect.

If I get rear sway bars will it stop much of the body roll or is it a waste of money?

I would lower it more but I dont want my camber to be off and get camber kits and...........ect. I still want to get a good shock/strut, Im thinking of geting Tokico Illimina's I just want a softer ride.

Not bad at all. Just make sure those pressures are at least 44-45 psi otherwise a pothole ... well, you get the picture.

Honestly the ride isn't really much worse, I noticed a bigger difference When I pu ton the comptech springs, everyone said that they have a good ride, but I think that the ride sucks with them. I am going to buy som e tokico Illumina (white) shocks. I have unconditional warrenties on the tires so I am going to keep the PSI maxed out.

Thanks for the comments and all your opinions!!!!!
